Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A method of operation of a navigation system comprising: generating a navigation route for displaying on a device; calculating an estimated time of arrival at a public display location along the navigation route; and scheduling a location-based notification for presenting on a public display system at the public display location prior to traversing the navigation route including: sending the location-based notification to the public display system before a current location is near the public display location, and adjusting a number of time units allocated for displaying the location-based notification based on viewing a media output device in a public place for a sufficient amount of time.

2

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising selecting the location-based notification associated with the navigation route.

3

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising identifying the location-based notification based on an estimated time of arrival to a point of interest.

4

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising identifying the location-based notification based on a remaining distance to a point of interest.

5

5. The method as claimed in claim 1 further comprising identifying the location-based notification based on a traffic condition along the navigation route.

6

6. A method of operation of a navigation system comprising: receiving a preference; generating a navigation route for displaying on a device; calculating an estimated time of arrival at a public display location along the navigation route; selecting a location-based notification based on the preference; and scheduling the location-based notification for presenting on a public display system at the public display location prior to traversing the navigation route including: sending the location-based notification to the public display system before a current location is near the public display location, and adjusting a number of time units allocated for displaying the location-based notification based on viewing a media output device in a public place for a sufficient amount of time.

7

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein selecting the location-based notification includes selecting the location-based notification based on usage information and associated with the navigation route.

8

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein selecting the location-based notification includes identifying the location-based notification based on an estimated time of arrival to a point of interest with the estimated time of arrival during hours of operation of the point of interest.

9

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein selecting the location-based notification includes identifying the location-based notification based on a remaining distance to a point of interest and a distance threshold.

10

10. The method as claimed in claim 6 wherein selecting the location-based notification includes identifying the location-based notification based on a traffic condition along the navigation route and a traffic threshold.

11

11. A navigation system comprising: a control unit configured to execute a navigation module for generating a navigation route for displaying on a device; a location unit, coupled to the control unit, configured to execute an identify location module for calculating an estimated time of arrival at a public display location along the navigation route; and wherein: the control unit is further configured to: schedule a location-based notification for presenting on a public display system at the public display location prior to traversing the navigation route, send the location-based notification to the public display system before a current location is near the public display location, and estimate a view time, on a media output device in a public place, having a number of time units allocated for displaying the location-based notification adjusted based on the media output device viewed for a sufficient amount of time.

12

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to execute a select notification module for selecting the location-based notification associated with the navigation route.

13

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to execute a time-based selection module for identifying the location-based notification based on an estimated time of arrival to a point of interest.

14

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to execute a distance-based selection module for identifying the location-based notification based on a remaining distance to a point of interest.

15

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the control unit is configured to execute a traffic-based selection module for identifying the location-based notification based on a traffic condition along the navigation route.

16

16. The system as claimed in claim 11 further comprising: a communication unit, coupled to the control unit, for executing an obtain module for receiving a preference; and a user interface, coupled to the control unit, for executing a select notification module for selecting the location-based notification based on the preference.

17

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to execute the select notification module is for selecting the location-based notification based on usage information and associated with the navigation route.

18

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to execute the select notification module includes a time-based selection module for identifying the location-based notification based on an estimated time of arrival to a point of interest with the estimated time of arrival during hours of operation of the point of interest.

19

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to execute the select notification module includes a distance-based selection module for identifying the location-based notification based on a remaining distance to a point of interest and a distance threshold.

20

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the control unit is configured to execute the select notification module includes a traffic-based selection module for identifying the location-based notification based on a traffic condition along the navigation route and a traffic threshold.
